Asymptote Architecture is a New York City-based firm, founded in 1989 by Hani Rashid and Lise Anne Couture. Notable projects include: the The Yas Hotel and the Alessi Flagship Store.
When Asymptote principals Hani Rashid and Lise Anne Couture won a 2007 competition to design a 500-room luxury hotel and marina on Abu Dhabi’s Yas Island, northeast of the mainland, the directive was firm: to create an iconic complex around a Formula 1 racecourse and complete it in time to host the country’s inaugural Grand Prix on November 1, 2009.
